How did you incorprorate the theme?
The fruits in this game all begin as one. As you match their rhythms and they split apart, their paths and rhythms diverge from one another.

Very interesting take on the theme and on a rhythm game in general!

At first I was a bit confused, but then I realized that each fruit is pulsating to its own rhythm, which you have to follow to pop it.

It was fun and satisfying to play, good job!

Different, and interesting approach. I've seem other people comment some points I had about the gameplay, so I won't be commentig again. Neverthless it's a cool game

A rare proposal, but very original. Maybe a little difficult to follow the rhythm of some fruits, but it's fun.

Cool take on a rhythm game. I might just be bad but felt hard to connect some fruits to the track and I couldn't get the rhythm to pop em. Nice and easy to understand and play though c:

Thanks so much for playing and for the thoughtful feedback! 
Out of curiosity and if you dont mind:
Which fruits did you notice yourself having trouble with? Did you find it hard to see the rhythm on them? Were they a bit small? Was it confusing that the fruit's patterns weren't necessarily exactly the rhythms in the music itself?
No worries if you're not sure. Accessibility and game feel are important to us so feedback like this is always invaluable.

I don't remember exactly which fruits but probably the smaller ones.
They weren't too small, I think you nailed it with it being confusing that the pattern wasn't the same as the music. I tried listening to know when to click. 

Great questions!

Very interesting idea. I included it in my Rhythm Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out!
